Too Many Choices!

Today Dave, Jessica, and I walked around Sheung Wan. We explored some historic artifact shops and took a lot of photos.

We shot the most at the street market, though. There were so many little shops run by elderly people who look like they’ve been selling the same stuff for the past 50 years. I shot like mad, and every time we had to move on I felt like I was missing out on some other spectacular shots.

So this is a lesson in being faster, both at shooting and at spotting quality shots. But at the same time, it is a lesson to accept that sometimes there is a limit to how much I can do, how much I can take. Having an overwhelming number of choices sometimes means to just pick a few and move on, without wondering whether I made the right ones or not.

We took Dave to eat at some a noodle shop for lunch and a dai pai dong for dinner. Both times he got to practice using chopsticks. I am proud to have taught him!

I am dead tired. Too much walking. I enjoy having Dave around, but playing tour guide is tiring. Good night!
